I Tried To Argue Against God And Ended Up Changing Everything

from Built for More Podcast · host Greg Pingel and Jonathan Roberts

Tampa wasn’t just a trip, it was a mirror. We went in expecting another solid event and came out talking about the one thing that actually changes people at the root: spiritual surrender. What surprised us most is how fast life starts to look different when belief stops being a vague “yeah, I think so” and becomes a hard yes or no. That shift shows up everywhere, from how we lead and coach to how we show up at home. We walk through a real faith journey from agnostic curiosity to conviction, starting with the question of evil and ending at the central claim of Christianity: the resurrection of Jesus. We break down why we look at the Gospels the way you’d evaluate testimony in court, why small differences in accounts can be a sign of authenticity, and why details like women being the first witnesses matter historically. We also dig into the uncomfortable question skeptics always ask: if Rome and religious leaders wanted to crush the movement, why wasn’t producing a body the easiest way to do it? Then we get practical. We talk about the “gifted not given” mindset, why gratitude can restore joy you thought you lost, and how faith changes anxiety, relationships, fitness, and discipline. We also hit Christian masculinity and leadership, the difference between passive niceness and real conviction, plus a detour into Big Bang theory and evolution debates through the lens of evidence, fine-tuning, and what “science” can and can’t prove. If any of this pushes a button, good. Listen, share it with a friend who loves to debate big questions, and leave a review with the one point you agree with and the one point you don’t.Support the show
